I was always taught that if you cut the head off the monster, filled its mouth with salt, and buried the carcass at a crossroads at midnight, everything would be tickety-boo. Yet somehow Scott Morrison came back from the dead this week.

I don't often agree with Michell Grattan, but this piece hits the mark.

The fact that there are two men who won't compromise and who won't look at what's good for the party or Australia speaks volumes about the Liberals right now

#AusPol
Two aspirants unlikely to suit the times vie for Liberal leadership
Andrew Hastie and Angus Taylor both want to run against Sussan Ley. But the two right-wingers cannot afford to split the conservative vote on which their tilts would rely.

Record wind power generation in Spain in January, showing the benefit of combining wind and solar.

The stormy weather has been terrible for solar, but great for wind: they complement one another.

And it’s why solar only is an awful idea for most mid-to-high latitudes.
Con el programa de hoy de REE tenemos 7.527GWh de eólica generados en enero hasta hoy. Con la previsión de potencia para mañana y pasado se puede calcular la energía eólica prevista:
30-1: 405,1GWh
31-1: 402,2GWh

Unos brutales 8.335GWh. Sería récord generación mensual y primera vez más de 8.000GWh

Just your regular reminder that John Howard never pushed back against Pauline Hanson and One Nation policies. He embraced them, which is how he outflanked them, while also setting the stage for what the Liberals are today. The myth that he 'pushed back' truly needs to die.

I own a home and I'd love to see property values diminished to livable levels. I'd love to see property sort of just done away with. I'd love to see 'being born' as the only qualifier for deserving a home and food and warmth. It's just luck and privilege right now. Fucking dick.

HPV caused my cancer. Treatments made all my teeth fall out (and weakened my jaw too much to take implants), destroyed my saliva glands, and created disabilities that forced me into early retirement in my 50s. Advising against vaccines for this is EVIL incarnate. Nobody shd needlessly go through it.
I am hearing that RFK Jr.’s minions are going to go after HPV vaccines. I’ve got problems with these people and now you’re going to hear about them, first from a personal perspective and then from a professional one.

It all boils down to this: WE HAVE A SAFE VACCINE THAT PREVENTS CANCER.

It's incredible to see the linguistic gymnatics the media will perform in defence of whiteness when a white man throws a bomb at black people. It's not a bomb, it's a "device designed to explode". Get ready for he's not a terrorist, he's just mentally unwell.

I'm sure the crowd was mixed with white and other Aussies at Boorloo/ Perth, as it was in Naarm/ Melbourne. Yet the fact someone tried kill or seriously injure many supporters of black & First Nations people generated precious little outrage. The apparent disregard compared to Bondi is stark.

I get that no one was killed or wounded in Perth, and it wasn't a religious celebration by the marginalised group being targeted. But a man threw a fucking shrapnel bomb into a crowd of 2,5000 people. Black and First Nations people. And politicians, the media & public silence about it is deafening.
The muted response to the Perth bombing exposes a pattern of national indifference
A failed bomb attack in Perth on Invasion Day drew little attention from the media and public. It shows Australia has long been selective in its sense of danger.
